Lyrics

Trip on my laces when nobody's there
Spill my coffee, talk to walls and empty chairs
Lose my keys at least three times a week
Practice being cool but my cool still squeaks
But tonight I've got a YouTube masterclass
"Ten ways to be charming, don't move too fast"
Ironed my shirt, hid the tag in the back
Put some insoles in my shoes so my spine won't slack
'Cause when I see your shadow walking down my street
I wanna be the smoothest version of me
In front of you I'm acting taller
Like I'm starring in a scene with a midnight caller
Every line I say's been rehearsed all day
Trying to play the part in the sweetest way
Got my best cologne and my borrowed swagger
In your eyes I'm a low-budget actor
But if I make you smile just a little bit longer
Maybe this pretending makes my real heart stronger
Hold the door like I've done it all my life
Pay the bill quick, "yeah, I got this, it's alright"
Lean on jokes when the silence starts to grow
Hide my shaking hands underneath the tablecloth below
Checked the mirror thirteen times before I left
Practiced how to stand so I look my best
All the tips I bookmarked spinning in my brain
"Look into her eyes, don't say something insane"
You laugh and say, "you don't have to try so hard"
But I still fix my jacket like I'm on a red carpet walk
In front of you I'm acting taller
Like I'm starring in a scene with a midnight caller
Every move I make's a carefully planned
Tiny little script in my clumsy hands
Got my best advice from some strangers' chatter
In your eyes I'm a half-nervous actor
But if I keep you close for a couple more songs
Maybe this performance is where I belong
Maybe one day I'll forget my lines
Show up in sneakers with no shine
You'll see the mess behind the screen
The bloopers and the in-between
And if you say you like that version too
I'll take off all the costumes just to stand by you
Till then with you I'm acting taller
Reading love like a script I can't quite follow
Every cheesy move, every borrowed line
Is just my scared heart trying to cross the line
Got my raised-up heels and my practiced laughter
But underneath I'm a see-through actor
If you look real close past the role I play
You'll find the real me trying not to run away
Trip on my laces when I'm on my own
But next to you I walk like I'm fully grown
